Seems like Ohio didn’t fare well overall. The Cats have played well in local summer league games. Here are scores from Euclid summer league. The Cats have played two Varsity teams, Gold is the top team. Would guess only 1-2 players from the “Blue” team end up on the Varsity this year.

Ace Buckner, Carter Jackson, Matt Ellis, Sean Martin (all upcoming juniors) played significant varsity minutes in the backcourt last season.
Jackson, Buckner and Ellis all had higher average ppg scoring. Little's strengths - ball handling, defense and taking the ball to the hoop.
Little has offers from Eastern Michigan, Kent State, Toledo (all MAC) and Cleveland State (Horizon)
Jackson has offers from Kent State (MAC) and Cleveland State (Horizon). Buckner has offers from George Mason (A-10), Univ Albany (America East) and Cleveland State (Horizon). Martin is a multi-sport athlete with FB offers from Toledo and Eastern Michigan
The Wildcats should be fine in the backcourt for the next 2 seasons.
